Duck and Cover

According to today's Huffington Post (and the New York Times), the Department of Homeland Security ranks Indiana as the state with the highest number of potential terrorist targets (8,591), which is 50 percent more listed sites than New York (5,687) and more than twice as many as California (3,212).

But before Hoosiers rush out to buy duct tape and haz-mat suits, I'd suggest checking out the full story to discover some of the things that Michael Chertoff's people consider as "terrorist targets."

Can we chalk this up to another item suggesting the Bush administration has a loose connection to reality?
